Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

I assure you this post is not going to be very long. I'm gonna talk not about what happen in school, but what happen
going back from school. You see, I was leaving school from badminton and happen to see Xiao Hui with one of his friends. Didn't really know that friend of his, but we went onto the bus together. After Xiao Hui got of at his stop, that person started a conversation with me. And really, I noticed that there was something different about him. The way he talks, the things that he took about, extremely different from a typical teenage boy at this age. It gives me enough confidence to throw away all masquearades and be completely honest with each other. And then he asked the question, "Are you Christian?" And I was actually quite surprised that he(most probably knew, cause he didn't ask "What religion?" ) Turns out, both of us were Christians. And God really spoke to me and I suddenly remembered this verse. I was thinking about it through the rest of our journey home, which trust me, felt very short cause of our conversation.
"The light of the righteous shines brightly." Proverbs 13:6 Really, we as Christians have to live the life for Christ. Before non-Christians can believe that Jesus Christ is credible, they have to know that you are credible. "Preach always, and if necessary, use words." St. Francis. Our life, even without us saying anything, has to make a scream for Christ. We need to live a life worthy of Christ's death and righteousness, and when we do, the bible says our light will shine brightly. We need to be completely different from the pattern of this world. And i suddenly remember why I chose this blogskin in the first place. I'll summarise this post with a quote from the song "Live the life" by Michael W SMith.
"For the world to know the truth, there can be no greater proof, than to live the life, live the life. There's no love as quite as pure, there's no pain we can't endure, if we live the life, live the life. Be a light for all to see, for every act of love will set you free."
Living the life for Christ.
